Find out what gamers are saying about Word Lookup Pro:
This used to be great to use with the game Words With Friends. But lately, when we try to find words thru this app, it recommends lots of words that are invalid in Words With Friends.
Really fun talking eternities fret sis rest enjoy life rest detdxdrrErerzzd.
We liked this app a lot until a month or so ago when WWF apparently started allowing new words such as je & ja. This app did not keep pace & add these new words that now allowed by WWF. Another word allowed by WWF but not found as a valid word in this app is Bhuna. Can you update your list so you have all words allowed by WWF?
We used to rely heavily on this app and found it always reliable. But in recent months we are constantly antsy given word suggestions that Words With Friends wont accept. That NEVER used to happen.
The app itself is good but we dont know why the app stopped working since a while ! Yet we paid for it Im not using the free version .
We love this app but many of the words no longer work. We dont know if its the Last IOS 12.2 update or the App update. Even the new words added in App update doesnt work says it is not a word. This is very frustrating, we’ve had the app a long time with no problems till now.
Except for all the time-consuming interruptions! Not sure its worth it!
We have bought the App but it doesnt open!!
We use this app often. Our only wish is that the letters defaulted to caps.
This app. Also a handy dictionary .
We love it, so many features xoxoxo.
It’s more useful than any app of it’s kind, period.
This can help you everyday. Use it to build your vocabulary. And let it help you to learn what words means.
Brilliant. The free version is so helpful for crossword and scrabble that we paid for pro to thank the developer. The meaning of most words is available with a fingertip. THANKS.
Especially useful in word games. Who needs a paper dictionary these days?!
With latest iOS upgrade it stopped working (doesnt search beyond 3 letters) and they havent offered an upgrade to repair it yet. Its been almost a month. Limits number of wild [space bar] to 2, which makes sense for Words with Friends, but doesnt help with crosswords or other times we want to look up a word and have more than two letters that are unknown. Doesnt always have a definition for the word it supplies. If it knows its a valid word, how can it not know the definition?
Very frustrating. All we want to do is play our ongoing games. Will quit this App soon!
App freezes have to reboot iPhone.
Previously when you looked up the definition of a word there was a link to the base form of the word. Now you have to perform a search for the new word sometimes going through multiple searches before you get to the definition. We used the old feature a lot to learn new words. The new version is very inconvenient and time consuming in comparison to the older version.
Its a lot of help when you want to look up the in spellings of words Duke.
Learning new words adds value to the game and expands our vocabulary!
Great for learning new words. Love the definition component.
Very, very helpful and easy to understand!
A great help with scrabble game !
We switched to the older version because it lacked the annoying bonuses and challenge matches. Now they put them here. Crap. Plus they keep resetting our preferences.
We love this app. Its easy to use and never crashes. We only gave it four stars and not five because nothings perfect but this app comes really close. If youre a scrabble or words with friends player its a must. Highly recommend it.
Absolutely love this app! Works great! Fabulous app – helps you play your A game!
This really is a good app and useful but it needs some improvements. We wish it included pronunciation and a way to say words ending in ( up or u) in certain letters, we believe they are called hooks. Thanks Scuttlebut8.
We have enjoyed using this app.
What do we do with the gold coins we are collecting.
Very good game. Big improvements from the game we played years ago!!! Including like; the coin rewards for achieving things. The daily morning rewards. And many, many, more ………
Word lists are sadly incomplete although helpful to a moderate degree.
Whoever writes the sample sentences which are very weird needs a course in English.
It would be very helpful if this app accepted an … Argument to allow specifying letter sequences when searching for possible words. Otherwise a very nice app!
Needs to accept more letters for bigger words…
